Second Swim Meet

The meet today was very hot and exhausting, especially for me. Required volunteering isn't so fun when you are on your feet the WHOLE time. These meets last about 6 hours. The kids are loving it though, so it is worth it.

Last Day of 3rd Grade

Today is Lexi's last day of 3rd grade. Time marches on...  They both had a great teacher, but Lexi completely adored her homeroom teacher. The kids brought gifts for their teachers this morning.

This afternoon, I met the kids with water guns, like most of the walking parents do. It is fun to spray them when they walk out of the school. They enjoy it for the celebration and because it is HOT here in Texas. They came home to find that I had decorated the front door. Let the summer games begin!

Goodbye to another Molar

Lexi lost another molar.

First Swim Meet

This was the first official swim meet of the season. Since Lexi missed the practice meet, this was her first chance to see what swim team is all about.

3rd Grade Awards & Presentation

The 3rd Grade had their end of the year awards and presentations today. Lexi loves doing PowerPoints, so she asked if she could make one for this. She made it at home and brought it in on a USB.

Rains Came Down

School was cancelled today because of the flooding rains. It is horrible in Houston, but out here in the suburbs, we were ok. It was actually a nice day. The kids and I walked to their school so they could play outside. Thankfully, swim team was not cancelled. The kids needed more exercise. Plus, Lexi needed to be timed so they can know where to place her in the upcoming swim meet. She missed the practice meet, so this was a make-up.

Not Feeling Well

Last weekend, Jordan was sick. This weekend it is Lexi's turn. I'm sure she has the same virus that he had. More sitting around for us....

Sunday Independence

Lexi was tired of sitting home with us while Jordan isn't feeling well. Since it is Sunday, I asked if she wanted to go to church. She was definitely up for that. We drove her to church and I found a friends for her to sit by. We came back and got her after church. She looked so cute in the outfit that Grandma and Papa Malcolm brought back from Hawaii.
